Making fish pies this evening.

Might make it a pie weekend, have some leftover beef and ale stew in the freezer as well as some puff pastry.

This one

Almost bought one, but I'm the only one who drinks coffee in our house and it would only take up way too much space in the kitchen.

Its a beaut, I usually take it espresso/americano so not sure if I should justify the auto milk ones or not

EDIT:

This one is more compact

Although I would prefer this one as it goes better with the rest of the kitchen, but £300 extra for style is a bit much for me

They are still quite big and the only things I allow on my worktop are the kitchen aid and the kettle, am regretting not getting the qooker tap thing when I installed the new kitchen earlier this year, might look into it this year.

Your timing of that question is spot on.

1. Boyos turn up to install but fails due to crap earthing.
2. Electrician turns up and says I need a PME installed... call western power
3. Western power turn up same day. Refuse to install PME as water + gas pipes not earthed.
4. Electrician comes back and earths water/gas pipes.
today...
5. WP turn up and install PME - house now properly earthed
6. Electrician turns up, connects PME, does some checks, all good
7. takes off old hob to discover a complete ballsack of wiring. spends half the day redoing it.
8. Connects up shiny new induction hob to shiney new wiring and IT DOESN'T FIT IN THE STUPID FCKING HOLE!! Despite having the same "dimensions" as the old one.

So yes, I have a new working induction hob but it's positioned at an offset across the corners of the original hole in the worktop until I or someone competent gets the drimmel out.

More perfect timing. Boyo who does "stuff" when I need it will come round on monday to make the hole ever so slightly bigger for the princely sum of £20

Used to, don't any more in coffee.

Normally take skimmed (fully) in tea, option is lemon in work coz I ain't got a fridge.

Used to drink coffee with tia maria and cream* back in the day before my arteries hardened.

*This was 37 years ago & someone else was paying.

Half fat milk for me.

Here they have Koffie melk which is a cross between milk and cream which is nice in coffee.

I hate to think what my arteries are like.
